Hart Museum in Newhall. They operate under the collective vision to inspire wonder, discovery, and responsibility for our natural and cultural worlds. The museums hold one of the world's most extensive and valuable collections of natural and cultural history--more than 35 million objects. Using these collections for groundbreaking scientific and historic research, the museums also incorporate them into on- and offsite nature and culture exploration in L.A. neighborhoods, and in a slate of community science programs. This creates a new natural history museum experience that explores the past, but increasingly addresses the present and the future.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Timber Press (OR)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42704984441069,"sku":"9781604697100","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_26f8dd54-07b6-48ec-8838-f0ce6a1ebaad.jpg?v=1650006835","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/wild-la-explore-the-amazing-nature-in-and-around-los-angeles-9781604697100","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
